Do nothing out of selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility, regard others as better than yourselves. Let each of you look not to your own interests, but to the interests of others. Philippians 2:3-4

We may be tempted to help others in order to make ourselves look good, but know that God detests such behavior. Let us therefore, in thought , word or deed, do all that we can, in all that we do, to bring God honor and glory. Let us learn to put others ahead of ourselves just as Christ did for us. He reminds us, that, if there is any encouragement in Christ, any consolation from love, any sharing in the spirit, any compassion and sympathy, make my joy complete, be of the same mind, having the same love, being of full accord and of one mind.
